PORTLAND, Ore., April 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Rentrak Corporation (NASDAQ: RENT), the leader in multi-screen media measurement serving the advertising, television and entertainment industries, today announced the company has signed an expanded StationView Essentials contract with Gray Television to include its Panama City stations, WJHG (NBC) and WJHG2 (CW). With the addition of these two new stations, Rentrak now provides ratings information to 10 Gray Television clients in six Florida markets including Ft. Myers, Jacksonville, Miami, Mobile-Pensacola, Orlando and Panama City.

"We think the Rentrak partnership and data will provide advertisers with timely, quantitative data to capitalize on marketing opportunities. Rentrak will also provide insight for news and promotions and how to better serve our market. The frequency of data will be very advantageous," said Curt Molander General Manager of WJHG-TV.

"It is exciting to see success begetting more success and we are proud to be expanding our partnership with Gray Television once again," said Steven Walsh, senior vice president of Local Market Sales at Rentrak.
